Encompass Online Training Courses
To access the Online (E-Learning) Training Courses, select the menu item from the left hand side. Then, select the E-Learning tab. (For Classroom Training information see: Encompass Classroom Training Courses)
Online/E-Learning Courses
Enrolling employees in online, e-learning courses allows learners to log in to a portal to complete the assigned training. With e-learning courses, you are able to align the training to a specific training checklist item for your employees.
Card View Versus List View
You can change the way your webpage displays the online courses with a Card View and a List View. In the upper right area of the page, chose your desired view.
Card View
Click a training card to open its details. The courses are organized in various topics. You can View All, or use the arrows to view additional courses associated to the topic.
From the course details page, you can read the course Overview, Objectives, note how long the course is, etc. Additionally, you can enroll Students (see Enrolling Employees in Training Courses for more information) and review who is already enrolled in the course.
List View
To change to a List View, click the "stacked lines" button, next to the card view icon. This view will allow you to search for specific courses, enroll students directly from the page, see how many students have completed/started/not started the course, etc. Clicking on the course title will bring you to the course page, showing you the overview, course duration, currently enrolled students, etc. This will look just like the page shown above for Card view.
Course Learners Actions
There are various actions you can take from the Learners section within the course details page: Unenroll, Send Reminder, Extend Expiration. You can either hover and click the associated icons for the individual learner, or you can check the box next to the learner/s to update in bulk.
Individual Actions

Hover and click the 'person with a minus sign' icon to unenroll that learner.
A pop-up message will appear ensuring this is the employee you want to unenroll.
